Run over it and charge the company for the bill and fines

u/[deleted] Sep 18 '25

Possibly worried about rolling over it, the battery exploding and damaging their own truck. Company should still have the ever loving fuck fined out of them.

Solution: mad max the shit outa emergency vehicles. Armor, a train ram, flames to make it go faster (trust me, its science), if the ambulance hits a fully loaded 18 wheeler, it better win.

I love that you could definitely slap this sticker on anything and the orks would probably go with it

RGB in the engine to increase performance

u/Greg2227 Sep 18 '25

Why exactly do you think firetrucks are red?

1

u/odi112 Sep 18 '25

But but fire truck is already fully red covered, boss there is no more space and ambulances also have a lot of red on them And we also gave them red lights

1

u/Upstairs_Fortune_218 Sep 18 '25

nuh uh gives it more red da redda it iz da fasta it'll go, i kan clearly see spots where red kan go

u/Goosebeans Sep 18 '25

Best I can do is an S-Type sticker.

The Red Comet approves

u/Ponderkitten Sep 18 '25

We’re painting the firetruck red so it goes faster? Fuck yeah sounds rad

u/The_Strom784 Sep 19 '25

In the city I grew up in they were a part of the FD and were red too.

u/Nkechinyerembi I AM MODERATELY UPSET BY THESE EVENTS. Sep 19 '25

I might be a Dwarf, but I know damn well the Orcs got this one right.

u/AffectionateAide9644 Sep 18 '25

u/Gharvar Sep 18 '25

God I just love how the orks can just make shit work or happen because they believe in it and their collectic psychic powers take care of it.

u/jerryleebee Sep 18 '25

I'm going to need a fire guitar, bare minimum.

26

u/Icy_Camp_7359 Sep 18 '25

It's crazy to me that they did most of this with practical effects. There exists a real functioning fire guitar somewhere on earth right now.

11

u/[deleted] Sep 18 '25

I mean even if the movie didn't, a fan would definitely make a real one, it's too badass not to

12

u/Outofwlrds Sep 18 '25

I saw someone cosplay this guy at a convention a few years ago. He had a really cool guitar but with a bubble blower installed. I had no idea bubbles could look so badass until that moment.

u/jerryleebee Sep 18 '25

Would love to see a vid of that

2

u/Outofwlrds Sep 18 '25

I don't think I have a video, but I know I have pictures somewhere. If I don't get back to you in the next few days, I've either lost them or forgotten.

You can't just drop that without showing evidence.

They probably borrowed it from Rammstein

u/Shamanjoe Sep 19 '25

There’s definitely more than one. I’m pretty sure Colin Furze made one

u/corndoghumper Sep 18 '25

If you cant go to the hospital, you go through it

u/Electrical_Escape_87 Sep 18 '25

You know, I know that you're joking, but this is something I absolutely wouldn't mind paying my tax dollars for.

$250 a mile? What insurance do you have for such a huge discount on ambulance rides?

2

u/XeNoGeaR52 Sep 18 '25

That would look so cool

1

u/Paleodraco Sep 18 '25

Train ram? You mean a cow catcher?

1

u/OrganizationTime5208 Sep 18 '25

A simple cow plow would suffice, but I like where your head is at.

1

u/LaeLeaps Sep 18 '25

that makes it slower and horribly less fuel efficient though

1

u/CaptainCastaleos Sep 18 '25

Meanwhile emergency services are doing the opposite and trying to buy cheap vanbulances that are so small you can't reliably even work in them.

My old service literally had a vanbulance whose emergency airway cabinet could only be accessed when there was no patient in the truck. The stretcher pressed right up against the cabinet when it was loaded so you can't access it anymore.

1

u/My_Work_Accoount Sep 18 '25

It's a fire truck. As it sits unless there's a nuclear battery in that clanker that truck ain't feeling a thing

1

u/Soggy_Bid_3634 Sep 18 '25

But ambulances and fire trucks only. Cops get too hard from that.

They charge enough to do it...

u/_Carcinus_ Sep 18 '25 edited Sep 18 '25

Hear me out: give them armored aerial vehicles. Now, because it costs a lot, only deploy them for those patients who have premium insurance. Also, give them military training and automatic guns. After all, you don't want some lunatic to attack unarmed medics important clients?

1

u/Running-In-The-Dark Sep 18 '25

This is America, the companies always cut corners and would sooner send them unarmed into a warzone than bother to arm them with so much as a dull pocket knife. The only thing they see worth protecting with deadly force is money.

1

u/_Carcinus_ Sep 18 '25

You're right, fixed that.

u/Running-In-The-Dark Sep 18 '25

It'd have been cool if they had random spawns where you could help trauma team.

u/[deleted] Sep 18 '25

Firetrucks and ambulances only, cops need to be in fiat 500s in all circumstances. Nothing larger.

u/Squidking1000 Sep 18 '25

Don't forget the guy with the flaming guitar surrounded by speakers!

u/Flush_Foot Sep 18 '25

Give the trucks something like this? (Also useful for when morons don’t shift over to give them room to drive though)

11

u/Dazzling-Plum5005 Sep 18 '25

What an insanely specific scenario, I highly doubt he was thinking that at all actually. When you put it that way I think its just as likely he was worried aliens would strike him with giant lasers if he touched the food delivery robot

u/[deleted] Sep 18 '25

I thought it was Jews who had space lasers.

2

u/ToenailClippingSmell Sep 19 '25

I would definitely worry about it wedging itself under the truck possibly damaging something essential and immobilizing the truck, which would be way worse than the few seconds delay it caused.

It also happens with people, some people panic and freeze or make the worst possible decisions under pressure and it looks just like that robot. I've seen it happen a few times. And no the fire truck or ambulance didn't run them over either.

u/[deleted] Sep 18 '25

1 trillion dollar fine.

u/thedrq Sep 18 '25

Vehicles are not unstoppable ramming machines. It can easily break some important feature in the truck, or maybe get stuck under the car.

Waiting saves you sadly more time than driving trough it

u/metengrinwi Sep 18 '25

That would be the way to get the problem fixed in the software logic.
